Our Practice

We believe the combination of yoga, good nutrition, and meditation are essential components for a happy and thoughtful life. Below is a brief description of the forms of yoga we teach. Let's work together towards enlightenment! Shanti Shanti

Vinyasa

A form of yang yoga that stimulates the muscles in the body, encouraging strength and great physical health. Vinyasa is translated from Sanskrit to mean "connection." It is used to describe a gradual progression or a step-by-step approach that systematically takes a student from one point and safely lands them at the next point. It is sometimes described as the "breathing system," or the union of breath and movement that make up the steps. The word vinyasa has been popularized and is used "shorthand" in many flow classes.

Yin Yoga

A form of yoga which is performed to stretch the connective tissues of the body. These include the hips, thighs and lower spinal area.Yang yoga stimulates the muscles in the body, but over time if yin yoga is not practiced, the body will weaken and the joints of the body will become susceptible to injury.

Restorative

Restorative classes are a good complement to more active practices. Props are used to support the body allowing you to open your body through passive stretching. After you are set up in a pose with all your props, you will hold the pose for an extended period, often up to ten to twenty minutes. It is the most relaxing form of yoga.
